Every establishment Toronto Public Health inspects under DineSafe, screened by name to leave out kitchens inside schools, care homes and offices. A conditional pass means infractions had to be fixed by a follow-up visit, not that the premises is closed.

Emergency services

Nearest station by straight line — not a response time, and not necessarily the station that would answer a call.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 99 m away, ≈5 spaces; 108 m away, ≈401 spaces; 294 m away, ≈221 spaces; 387 m away, ≈249 spaces; 555 m away, ≈912 spaces; 584 m away, ≈5 spaces.
Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.
Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Dec 10, 2023 (a weekend day)
The east leg carries the load — 4,108 westbound vehicles, or 36% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 2,158. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,785 vehicles in the hour from 2:00 p.m., 103% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (879). Heavy vehicles made up 3.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count was taken on a Sunday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.
How fast traffic moves here
Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming
The City's counter on Finch Ave E between Blackbird Gt and Scarborough Railpath Trl (320 m away) recorded an average of 59 km/h in its 24-hour count in December 2009; 85% of drivers were at or under 66 km/h. That segment carries about 5,400 vehicles a day. The reading is 17 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Staines Rd · Morningside Ave – Wharnsby Dr · 35 m | Oct 2011 · 3 days | 7,440 | — | — | — |
| Finch Ave E · Blackbird Gt – Scarborough Railpath Trl · 320 m | Dec 2009 · 24 h | 5,431 | 59 km/h | 66 km/h | 71 km/h |
| Morningside Ave · Finch Ave E – Scarborough Railpath Trl · 347 m | Oct 2011 · 3 days | 6,541 | — | — | — |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.
All police-reported collisions
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025
The peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 45 collisions. 26% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 37 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 15% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 5% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 16 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 18, 2026.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt; one collision involved vehicle occupants only. Both happened in darkness. The most recent was on Apr 27, 2022.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 2 | #439 of 1,505 |
| Fatal | 0 | |
| Involving a pedestrian | 1 | #790 of 879 |
| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 2 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 2 | latest Apr 27, 2022 |
KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
Thefts reported at this corner
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
Toronto Police place two thefts from vehicles and one bicycle theft at this intersection in 2016–2025 — below the median of 6 for an intersection with any reported theft.

|---|---|---|---|---|

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jun 20, 2022. Police offset every occurrence to the nearest intersection before publishing, so these are thefts on the streets and premises around this node, not necessarily at the corner itself. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Malvern West.
